Google developing giant, modular display - report

2014-10-06 09:52:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) Google is developing a display made up of smaller screens that would click together to create a seamless image, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing three people familiar with the project, taking place at the company's advanced projects lab. With the modular pieces, the screen could be made into different sizes and shapes, the people said. The previously undisclosed project is led by Mary Lou Jepsen, a former Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor best known for co-founding the One Laptop Per Child project. The project remains at an early stage and has been kept secret, even within Google, partly because of the technical challenges. The big challenge is to electronically, and through software, do the stitching between the seams," a person familiar said. Google X is trying to recruit more display experts to work on the problem, the person added.
